What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Georgia
I wrote a check to someone for mowing my grass. He came back the next day and told me he lost the check. I told him that I wasn't going to pay him until I stopped payment on the check. I stopped payment the next day and gave him the cash. A month later I received a letter by certified mail, he cashed the chech at a check cashing place and now they say I'm responsible to pay them the amount of the check plus a $35 fee. Does anyone know if this is correct? It doesn't seem right that I'm responsible to the check cashing place as I didn't write them the check.
